DOMINIC WILLIAMS
Content Marketing Executive
Hello colleagues. I am delighted to be
JADE MILLWARD able to welcome you to this month’s
Marketing Campaign Manager
edition of the Numark Membership
DONNA ELLISON Magazine.
JAKE GRAYSON You may or may not have picked up on the
Marketing Campaign Executive
announcement of the legislation that allows the
introduction of centralised assembly processes
CATHY CROSSTHWAITE for medicines across differing legal entities. Some
Web Content &
Trade Planning Manager people call that “Hub and Spoke” legislation and at
Numark, I will refer to it as “Spoke and Hub” legislation
because for me, the magic happens at the spokes!
CHE EARL
Events Manager What I mean by that is, the spoke element is where
patients are directly accessing your pharmacies and
that is where patient care is delivered. Therefore, that
ANTHONY MATTHEWS
Graphic Designer Manager should be the focus of any efficiency gain through
centralised assembly, so I am reassuring you that we
recognise that community pharmacy is the important
CHARLIE ELLIOTT
SAUL NAYLOR piece in that medicine’s preparation and supply
NATALIE HILL process.
Graphic Designer Numark will consider what that means for all our
community pharmacy members who partner with
CONTRIBUTORS us and as I mentioned before, because assembly
Sam Sapseid, Lucy Morris, can now be delivered across differing legal entities,
Sue Swift, Harry Mcquillan we really must review how and if “spoke and hub”
Emily Jones, Jacquie Lee,
Jackie Thorpe, Kieran Killoran, assembly adds value to your pharmacy operating
Rhys Martin, Emma Gilmour, business model. Until we do that thinking, that is a
Accord Healthcare difficult question to answer and one we must consider,
as I’m sure you would expect us to do. We will have
to consider the full implications for everyone across
the whole supply chain to make sure the community
pharmacy network is as efficient and patient
focussed as possible.
